nificent animal, Is little il any behind in |
the points OF worth, and every animal in |
the lot has especial features of merit. |
Four handsome French coach horses
were greatly admired from among Mr.. |
Elwood's stock, and these were no ex.
ceptions from the rule IN the taking of
premiums. Visitors to the fair lind on
entering the grounds Mr.. Elwood's stock |
ranged along the first fifty box sta lis in
the horse department. If any think that
fine stock is not appreciated in Nebraska
they should stand and watch the crowds
that gather before the stalls, and they
would know that it pays enterprisng
stock to Nebraska people, Mr. Elwood,
In speaking of the Nebraska state fair,
said that it exceeded IN every way his ex-
pectations, and he has no regrets for
bringing his magnificent exhibit to the
state. Mr.. Elwood is one Of the
leaders IN the west in the Percheron
importing business and has line of stock
that cannot be excelled. He keeps only
the choicest of animals imported and
from direct imported horses, on his
stock farm at DeKalb, for sale and any
desiring to Improve stock or purchase
something that they know is all that is
asserted of it should write for circulars
to Mi. Elwood. Judging from the exhi-
bit at the fair there if no liner stock this
side of the Atlantic.
